Verizon Net Neutrality conference call

Verizon is obviously concerned that they are on the wrong side of the Keeping the Internet a Level Playing field debate.  They seem a bit scattered in how they are addressing the issue.  They held a conference call today ( I was unaware of this call ) during which they did a reportedly pretty poor job of stating their position.

Turk at Kung Fu Quip was on the call and provides the coverage:

Bloggers have been doing a good job beating the hell out of the telcos and cable companies on net neutrality, so it was about time for opponents of net neutrality to try and persuade them regarding the error of their ways. To that end, they held a conference call on the topic this afternoon. Honestly, I was surprised that they would do this, given that the telcos really launched this debate through their offhand comments about “their networks”. But they wanted to take it on, so I wanted to listen in.

To be clear, I'm firmly in the "opposed to net neutrality legislation" crowd.

The Verizon folks weren't as prepared as they should have been, but they're still right on the issue.

Turk, no problem, I just appreciate the report on the conference call.
